New Peace Delegate in Prospect Peking, Sept. 7, The ceremonies attending the Letrothal of General Chang Tso-"Jin's son and General Tsao Kun's daughter took' place at Tientsin yesterday. Many high Peking officials were present.
Tt is reported to-day that Generals Chang and Tsao will return to Mukden and Paotingfu respectively without returning to Peking.
The Peking "Jih Pao" considers it significant that the presence of the two Generals at Tientsin coincided with the arrival of Liang Shih-yi. The paper points out that the movement in favour of Liang Shih-yi succeeding General Li Shun as Chief Northern Delegate is gaining strength.—Reuter
